Which firmware version are you running? I think 2.0.6 and earlier could be rooted using get_root.app. The latest versions are still unrooted, as far as I can tell.

Ha! - this could be the reason: 2.1.2 - RC6. THX. Tried the get_root.app, but did not succed (also tried everything from commandline). I read about that problem and therefore didn't try furthermore. The RC6-Version speeds up the display really a lot! It is stable, as I can say after 3 days with it. The only thing: the Mp3-Player (which I never use) is not working any more.
